[AUR] Hydra team interested in maintaining package?

[flyingcakes85]

As per PRQ#68519 on aur-requests 1, its said that Hydra team is interested in maintaining the AUR package.

I'm creating this issue thread to confirm if it is indeed the Hydra team and not an adversary. If the Hydra team is indeed interested in maintaining the package, I shall add the relevant user as maintainer and remove myself.

Hello!
Thanks for reaching out
Yes, yesterday we created the AUR package aur.archlinux.org/packages/hydra-launcher and submited the request to merge hydra-launcher-bin into hydra-launcher
Our account on AUR is https://aur.archlinux.org/account/hydralauncher

I have also just read the comment on PRQ#68519
Pardon for these mistakes, we will appreciate adding us as maintainers and will take a better look at how to better manage AUR packages

Hi

I've added hydralauncher as a co-maintainer on the package. Now if you login to AUR and and see your dashboard, you should see the package listed under co-maintained packages. on the package page, you'll see an SSH clone link, which will allow you to push updates.

I can confirm from AUR search that you've been added as maintainer: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages?SeB=c&K=hydralauncher

Whenever you next update the package, make sure to add your name/nickname along with contact on the first line against Maintainer in the PKGBUILD. (https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=hydra-launcher-bin#n1)

Let me know if you need any help. Drop a text on this thread or use one of my direct contacts for a private conversation.

PS. also let me know if you wish for me to remove myself as a maintainer. That will require me to orphan the package and you adopting it. Do note, it will mean I will no longer be able to push updates and you'll be managing the package.

I believe that package was deleted by the admins, since you used the main package name but used a binary as source. Any package using binary sources must have -bin suffix. Packages without this suffix should be built from source.
